    What is the difference between cost-per-click and pay-per-click? Is there any difference between them?

    Re:

    They both are really the same thing.

    Like someone saying "let's go to the party".

    "I'm going to attend party".

    PPC and CPC are similar but PPC comes in Advertisement category and CPC comes in publishing category.

    The way I understand it is PPC is use when you want to sell a product. While CPC is use when you want to ptomote a product. Did I get it right?

    The difference is concerning whether your a publisher or an adveriser. If you're a publisher then your concern is ppc; it means you get paid everytime someone clicks the ads in your site. If you're an advertiser then your concern is cpc; it means you will pay every click in your ads.
